The Crown Prince is Actually a Princess! SEASON 1

Chapter 21 - The Prince's Worries

....

When the Prince Regent arrived to personally ask about the murder case, Master Gu Huai was a little flustered, but he still kept quiet.

Although it was a sensational murder case in the whole city, there was no need for the Regent to come to Dali Temple in person.
There were so many government affairs that needed to be handled by him, and there were so many more important family and country events to be taken care of than this murder case.
Therefore it was a bit unbelievable that he had come to Dali Temple in person.

Perhaps the murders were related to that ballad, and since the first two events of that ballad had already happened in the Palace, it was still understandable...

Thinking about this, Master Gu Huai felt that the responsibility on his shoulders became greater.

Shen Zhiyan's hands were still wearing thin gloves, and he smiled like a breeze.

"It's not a coincidence that Your Highness is here. I just finished checking the body."

"What is the fatal injury of the deceased?"
Murong Ci walked towards the corpse and asked straightforwardly.

"Who was the deceased, have you found out?"
Murong Yu stood beside her, staring at the wound on the deceased's face,

"The wound on her face..."

"Your Royal Highness, the deceased is about 30 years old and her identity is temporarily unknown.
She has many bite wounds on her face and limbs, and in some of the wounds some fleshes have been bitten off."
Shen Zhiyan put away his smile and said solemnly.

"The deceased was bitten to death?
Was it really bitten to death by a fish?"
She asked excitedly, with a sudden surge of blood.

"Your Highness, don't worry.
The wounds of the deceased should be bitten by some kind of sharp-toothed insects and not necessarily by a fish."
He continued,

"There are several deep wounds, and the deceased should have shed a lot of blood.
It can be seen that she was not dead at the time she was bitten.
However, these bites were not fatal injuries."

"Where is the fatal injury of the deceased?"
Murong Yu's eyes became cold and severe.

"The fatal injury of the deceased was in the internal organs.
The internal organs ruptured and died."
Shen Zhiyan's clear and smooth voice eased their anxiety.

"First, the internal force of the murderer crushed the internal organs to the point that she was not yet dead."

"Then the murderer let some kind of insects bite her to dead.
The deceased must have seen several terrible insects biting her under severe injuries."

"Just thinking about it, it's is so scary and horrible even for us that we see these kind of stuff every day."

"Once she was dead, the murderer must have thrown her into the Luo River, laying out an illusion of a man-eating fish.
Therefore, the murderer who killed the deceased should be a person with a high internal strength."
